Nice to see some NB representation in the pants shitting community.

Usually the scroll wheel moves the viewpoint, not the content. I.e. Scrolling the top of the wheel towards yourself (“down”) moves the viewpoint down the page, making the content appear to move up.

I’m a 3rd other thing. I only have fake accounts, no main.

I wonder what I did to deserve not being on the list… :P

I think Souls games went too far tho. If we stayed at DS1 level that’d be one thing, but the Elden Ring DLC just went stupid with it.

Yeah, I have 96gb and I still assign a zram swap, just in case. I also have a zram tmp, and a zram for my portage compilation dir (I use Gentoo). The latter gets the most use.

I think I was thinking of situations where the wifi owner redirects you to their impersonation site with their own cert, but a normal browser will pop up a big warning about that. Also if the site properly uses HSTS and you’ve been there on that machine before, then you’re protected from being directed to a http impersonation site. A VPN will protect you from both (assuming the VPN us trustworthy), but if you’re savvy you don’t need it. But then the type of person who needs the kind of simplified explanation for “why VPN” that you get in ads is not savvy.

No, I’m definitely talking about https. Could be this is no longer a thing tho, I need to look it up.

I’m under the impression https can be defeated by a man-in-the-middle attack if you’re not paying attention. Haven’t looked into it recently to be sure if that’s still the case or a solved issue, though. But that was one reason to use a VPN while on untrusted wifi, supposedly.

Your toes do have toetips, just nobody gives a shit about them.

He want to bone

I think the issue is that winning long-term requires investing in the defeated country, like you guys did with Japan. Rather than just stopping bombing them and leaving them to fend for themselves, breeding resentment. Resentment is gonna happen regardless, of course, which is why the best move is to not start a war in the first place.

Hah, I get it now. Tho it does leave me wondering why use money for that? Is it just cause you have it on hand and lack anything more suitable?

I’m under the impression that no, the US does not have enough conventional weapons to do this. If he were to escalate to non-conventional weapons that would change things but I don’t want to think about how the rest of the world would react to the US carpet bombing an entire country with nukes…

I would not pay $155 for that shit.

It also meant and still means cheap cask wine. taps head

Yeah okay.

Didn’t know paypal were doing that…

Sadly I don’t think that’s on the cards. :(

I will object when this BS heads out my way eventually, of course. But if some law gets passed requiring the OS to be able to tell programs the age of the user, I would vastly prefer it just be something set by the sysadmin at account creation, and that the user not be able to change it themself. That last part mainly because if the user can change it themself, even braindead politicians will realise it is not doing anything and they will legislate something else. Probably something worse.

Honestly, no. I’m aware there are other options. But if the govt is mandating something, I’d rather it made sense. Demanding everyone set an env var is nonsense.
